Autopsy results for 3-year-old Brendan Link Creato were inconclusive. The Camden County Prosecutor's office said that the medical examiner was not able to determine a cause of death at this point. Brendan was reported missing Tuesday morning at 6 a.m. from his father's Haddon Township apartment. His father can be heard telling 911 dispatchers, "I just woke up and my three-year-old is missing." The boy was found dead just three hours later in a wooded area near the Cooper River a few blocks from home. His mother lives in a different home. Authorities have not revealed any information about how Brendan may have gotten away from home or if foul play was involved. Last night about 100 attended a candle light vigil.

Listen to the 911 audio:

A former defensive lineman for Temple University and NFL player from 2012-2014 was diagnosed post-mortem with chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE. Harrisburg-native 25-year-old Adrian Robinson Jr. committed suicide this past May. Robinson was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers as an un-drafted free agent. He bounced around between the Philadelphia Eagles, Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers, Washington Redskins, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The diagnosis came from the Boston University-affiliated Concussion Legacy Foundation. The NFL has not acknowledged any wrongdoing but has put aside $1 billion to settle any lawsuits that arise from claims regarding concussions, CTE, suicide, and other mental health related to repeated blows to the head. Robinson's family has not filed suit.
